What Some Of Our Patients Are Saying
-
I had a fantastic EVENING (woot! Love the convenience!!) appointment tonight with dental hygienist J. who is always caring, professional, and compassionate and knows how to take my mind off the treatment. She made scraping the barnacles off my teeth tonight seem more I was having a cup of coffee with a good friend. Then Dr. Hawthorne rolls in with his ever-so-slightly sarcastic yet hilarious bedside manner and he thoroughly checks over and reviews with me everything he knows I'm worried about. They know I'm a highly anxious patient and whether it's just a cleaning or a root canal they have always gone above and beyond to ensure my comfort and my dental health is a priority. I really appreciate the care I receive at Cornerstone Dental!
